I can not get audio from the hdmi output even though I have connected to another sound card, Xonar DS, with the s/pdif connector that came with the graphics card.

Anyone else tried this.

Thanks

Are you using an HDMI connection?

Yes

I want the 9400GT to connect to my HDTV via HDMI. This works for the video but I can't get the audio as well.

I have added a separate Xonar DS sound card which has a s/pdif output. Using the 9400GT s/pdif lead I have connected the Xonar DS to the audio in on the 9400GT but no audio appears on the HDMI to the TV.

I'm using Win 7 x64 and have selected the s/pdif output on the sound card to be the default.

Thanks

you may have the 2-pin s/pdif cable plugged in wrong.....

It only goes in one way on the 9400GT as it is a polarised plug.

The other end is marked signal and ground and as far as I am aware I have connected to the Xonar correctly even though the card isn't marked. but their forums have the connection info.

Are there any tests one can do or should it just work?

In my experience....if it's connected properly, it just works.
